I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister

If you can become a third-rank official of the imperial court, what is the 30 taels?

Becoming a third-rank official means a higher position and greater power. Isn't it easy to make money?

As the saying goes, three years to clear the magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflakes in silver!

Even the magistrate of the fourth rank can earn 10 taels of silver in just three years!

Isn't it easier for a third-rank court official?

"Lin Jijiu, are you really going to be promoted again?" the old minister, Mr. Wang couldn't help asking.

"Of course, what did I lie to you for?" Lin Beifan's face was displeased.

"Congratulations to Lin Jijiu!" The old minister cupped his hands and said enviously.

It seemed that he had struggled for most of his life, and his hair was all gray before he climbed down from the court and became an important minister of the court.

The other party is ready to become a third-rank official at a young age, how can he not be envied?

Lin Beifan sighed: "Stop congratulating, this is not something to be happy about!"

"You're all promoted, aren't you happy?" The third prince and the veteran were both dumbfounded.

Lin Beifan sighed again, and said with a melancholy face: "Of course, the promotion speed is too slow! Like I used to, I was promoted to a level basically every month, and the speed has always been stable! But now, after more than two Month, it took nearly three months to upgrade to the first level, and it's not as good as before, so I'm a little embarrassed to speak!"

The three princes were shown their faces, and they were all in a bad mood!

You know, that is a third-rank official, a real important minister of the court, who is trusted by the emperor, holds great power, and can influence national policy with every word and deed. How can it be so easy to get promoted?

You can complete such an achievement in three months, is it still too slow?

Still embarrassed to speak?

really really...

I'm so mad!

Both of the third princes were a little unhappy!

At this time, Lin Beifan waved his hand: "Forget it, let's not mention these sad things!"

The third prince and veteran: "..."

"Let's get down to business and continue talking about the Yanwu Controversy!"

Lin Beifan said eloquently: "The battle between Yan and Wu is related to my reputation and future! You only paid 30 taels, and let me sacrifice my reputation and have a future. Is it possible? Besides, I lack the 30 taels ?"

The third prince looked at each other again.

30 taels, you really don't need it, but we don't have any more money for you.

"Lin Jijiu, I think you should just obediently accept the money and do things for us honestly!"

The third prince said with a trace of temper: "You know, you are ours! If your identity is leaked, your bright future and wealth will be wiped out! Can Dawu accommodate you?"

Lin Beifan sneered, and said with a sneer, "You still dare to threaten me? Your Highness the Third Prince, you are so naive. You go out now and expose my identity. Do you think people believe you or me?"

"Go and tell Her Majesty the Empress, do you think she will believe me, a loyal minister who has made many contributions to Dawu, or you, an enemy prince with sinister intentions?"

The third prince was speechless.

Looking at Lin Beifan's proud face, he said in a deep voice, "But we have evidence!"

"What evidence?"

"At the beginning, we spent huge sums of money to obtain the manufacturing method of the big balloon and the hovercraft from you. This manufacturing method is the proof! As long as you compare it with your handwriting, you will not be able to explain it!" The third prince smiled proudly.

With a puff, Lin Beifan spat out the wine and laughed loudly: "Haha..."

"What are you laughing at?" The third prince asked angrily.

"It's so funny to threaten me with the blueprint of the method of manufacturing, I'm dying of laughter!" Lin Beifan laughed.

"Is there something wrong?"

"Your Highness, the Third Prince, do you think I didn't think about the consequences when I did these beheadings? The blueprints I gave you are completely different in handwriting! You want to threaten me with this, you take it for granted, it's ridiculously naive !Ha ha……"

The third prince was very upset, black lines appeared on his face, and his heart was full of anger.

If he wasn't in the territory of Dawu, he would have wanted someone to drag this disrespectful person out and chop him up!

"Okay, okay, everyone is our own, don't hurt your peace!"

The veteran finally stood up and acted as a peacemaker: "Lin Jijiu, just now His Highness was young and impulsive, and said some nonsense, don't take it to your heart! This old man punishes himself with three cups, you adults don't count villains!"

As he spoke, he drank three cups in a row, his face changed color.

"Master Wang still knows the general idea, please!" Lin Beifan returned a glass of wine.

"Lin Jijiu, after careful consideration by the old man, you said 100 million taels, so it's 100 million taels! I will trouble Master Jijiu tomorrow!"

The third prince became anxious, pulled the other party to a corner, and whispered: "My lord, how can we have so many silver taels?"

The veteran smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, you can't give it now! Just now you were too impulsive and offended Lin Beifan. What if he holds grudges in his heart and kills the Quartet tomorrow? We really can't afford to lose!"

The third prince was full of confusion: "But we don't have that much money..."

"It's still possible to make it together! As long as you can win the battle between Yan and Wu, what's the point of losing money?"

The third prince thought for a while, finally made up his mind, and nodded: "What Mr. Wang said is absolutely true!"

So, they came back and promised 100 million taels.

But Lin Beifan was still very upset: "Just sent me away for 100 million? You thought beautifully! You threatened me just now, I am very unhappy, I have to pay more!"

The three princes said, "Damn!".

Chapter 195 There is no one who can fight, I am ashamed to be with you!

It's all at this juncture, and you still need to add more money?

Are you too greedy?

I really want to add a crime, so I have no words!

"Lin Jijiu, you want too much, I don't have that much money!" The third prince said with a dark face.

"Who would believe that, you are the third prince of the Great Yan Dynasty, who is favored by the Great Yan Emperor and has many supporters, so you will have no money?" Lin Beifan said incredulously.

"We, Dayan, have very strict restrictions on civil and military officials and relatives of the emperor. There is a fixed amount of salary every year, and the amount is not large! If you find out about corruption and bribery, you will definitely be severely punished!"

"If it is light, it will demote the official, if it is serious, it will lose its head, and it will even bring disaster to the three clans!"

"Although this palace is the third prince of the imperial court and is very much loved by the emperor, if it is found that there is a little bit of illegal corruption, it will definitely be taken to the clan's mansion and strictly disciplined!"

"Imperial Father is just and strict, no one can make an exception!"

The third prince said helplessly: "Because of this, I really don't have that much money!"

"Your Highness, the third prince, you can't even take out 100 million taels. Your life is a failure!" Lin Beifan said mockingly: "Like a princess I know, she once promised tens of millions of taels of silver in order to poach me away. You don’t even hesitate to agree with your body! But I don’t agree! Your mere 10 taels really can’t make me fall in love!”

"Which princess is so rich? I don't believe it!" The third prince shook his head.

The princess Lin Beifan was talking about was naturally Princess Ziyue!

A princess on the run, a princess too!

And this princess thief is rich, much more powerful than those real princesses!

"Believe it or not is up to you! Your Royal Highness, since you have no money, there is nothing I can do to help you!" Lin Beifan stood up and said, "You two, I have bothered you just now, so I will leave!"

Veteran Lord Wang stretched out his hand and called out: "Lin Jijiu, please stop, let's discuss it later!"

As he spoke, he pulled the third prince to the corner: "Your Highness, you must agree! If Lin Beifan leaves, we will have no chance, and the battle between Yan and Wu will be suspended!"

The third prince said helplessly: "But Mr. Wang, I really can't make up so much money!"

Lord Wang gritted his teeth: "Your Highness, the veteran still has some private money! Although it is not much, it should be able to satisfy the other party's appetite!"

"Thank you, Mr. Wang, I will definitely remember your kindness!"

In this way, the third prince scraped together 120 million taels, barely satisfying Lin Beifan's appetite.

Lin Beifan put a thick wad of money into his pocket with a smile on his face: "His Royal Highness, Mr. Wang, you have a heart! Don't worry, we will see how I perform tomorrow!"

"Then there will be Laurin's sacrificial wine!" said the third prince, Lord Wang, who had become a pauper, clasping his hands.

"You're welcome! However, I can't be too obvious. Even if I want to lose, I have to lose beautifully. It's an honor to lose! This way, I won't hurt my face, and at the same time, I can explain to Her Majesty the Empress and the people! "

The three princes nodded in understanding.

The third prince asked: "Lin Jijiu, what are your plans?"

"My plan is like this!" Lin Beifan coughed: "Tomorrow, when the literary competition is held, I will pretend to be arrogant. You can't see it, and take advantage of the trend to increase the difficulty of the topic. I was stimulated, It’s definitely going to be tough.”

Lin Beifan smiled complacently: "The difficulty of the topic has increased. Although I performed normally, or even performed supernormally, I still lost to you. In this way, it is not that I am not capable, but that the sky is not on me, and it is an honor to lose!"

The three princes nodded and said with a smile: "That's a good plan!"

Lin Beifan picked up his wine glass and said vigorously, "I wish us success!"

"It's a success!" Everyone laughed.

After drinking this glass of wine, Lin Beifan left with a huge sum of money in his arms.

On the second day, Wendou continued.

Because of the battle between Yanwu and Yanwu on the first day, Lin Beifan represented Dawu and won a big victory over the Yanwu team, and the emotions of the people were very high.

The genius was slightly brighter, and many common people had already gathered outside the arena.

"I hope to continue to win today!"

"I think, as long as there is Lin Jijiu, there will be no problem!"

"Yes, as long as Lin Jijiu goes out, I will be invincible and invincible!"

"It's time to start!"

……

In the martial arts arena, the empress and all civil and military officials had already arrived.

Yesterday's victory over Dayan's representative team, the empress and all the civil and military officials were very happy, and their faces were very relaxed.

His eyes could not help but drift to Lin Beifan.

I hope that he will continue to work hard and lead the young talents of Dawu to pursue the victory.

In contrast, Dayan's representative team looked more solemn.

Lost two games in a row yesterday, the situation is very bad, today we have to win no matter what.

The empress looked at the sky and nodded to the master of ceremonies: "It's time to start!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The master of ceremonies turned around, faced the two teams, and announced loudly.

"The 3rd game of Wendou - book!"

"Please send a talented person from each side to conduct a calligraphy competition! The winner stays, and the loser leaves! The competition is over until all five talented people on one side are completely defeated! The side that stays on the field is the final winner!"

Dayan side.

"Liu Hai, you should go first in this round!" The third prince nodded.

Liu Hai was a little nervous and embarrassed: "But Your Highness, among the crowd, my calligraphy can only be regarded as mediocre! If I play first, if I lose, it will affect our morale!"

"Don't worry, show your strength, we will win today!" The third prince was very confident.

I have bought the strongest person from them, so I'm afraid I won't be able to win?

As long as he releases the water, what do other people have to be afraid of?

"Yes, Your Highness!" Liu Hai exhaled and walked onto the martial arts arena.

Dawu side.

"Liao Rumin, you go first!" Lin Beifan said.

"Master Jijiu, don't you go first?" Liao Rumin was taken aback and said.

Lin Beifan said disdainfully: "They are too weak, and they really can't inspire my fighting spirit! Go ahead and show everyone your calligraphy skills! Take it easy, and I'll take care of you!"
